Description

It would be helpful to show the user that pf has enabled adaptive state timeout scaling when it kicks in.

Some sample code to calculate the scaling factor and to flag when it is active:

if (isset($config['system']['adaptivestart']) and $config['system']['adaptivestart'] > 0) {
    $adaptivestart = "{$config['system']['adaptivestart']}";
} else {
    $adaptivestart = intval($maxstates * 0.6);
}
if (isset($config['system']['adaptiveend']) and $config['system']['adaptiveend'] > 0) {
    $adaptiveend = "{$config['system']['adaptiveend']}";
} else {
    $adaptiveend = intval($maxstates * 1.2);
}
$adaptive_text = "";
if ($curentries > $adaptivestart) {
    $scalingfactor = round(($adaptiveend - $curentries) / ($adaptiveend - $adaptivestart) * 100, 0);
    $adaptive_text = "Adaptive state handling enabled, state timeouts reduced by {$scalingfactor}%)";
}

Main problem is formatting in the widget, getting it to a place where it's clear what it is without cluttering. Bonus points for changing the color of the progress bar to yellow when this is active.

A few problems as it is implemented:

1. It doesn't work because it's checking $curentries not $pfstatetext
2. $pfstatetext isn't populated a the time of the check, it needs to be moved up from where it is set
3. It only takes effect when the page is loaded, not dynamically when the widget is refreshed via JS. If the threshold is exceeded and the page isn't reloaded, the user wouldn't see the change in color. I thought the thermal sensors widget updated dynamically like that but I don't have a simple way to confirm that at the moment.

Logic has been updated but only on initial page load. Once this has been tested and confirmed as satisfactory I will add the Ajax magic.

Seems to also be susceptible to a PHP error, the code can end up dividing by 0: #10993

Functionality has been finalized by adding the required data and providing the needed Ajax logic.

I'm still only seeing the label and color change if I reload the page with a high state count. If I change the state count without reloading the page, the value changes as before but the color and labels stay the same.
